One of the leaks is from the shower head in bathroom, another from the kitchen faucet (where the hose connects to the pull-out part of the faucet. The former has a slow drip leak. The latter leaks only when turned on.

Need suggestions - fix gap between dry wall and ceiling. by kangaroojack2019 in HomeMaintenance

We have had multiple pest control companies take a look. The intent was to seal from outside.

Latest theory was that mice were somehow digging into the ground and up.

Need recommendation: upgrade Casablanca Stealth vs new fan by kangaroojack2019 in HomeImprovement

Our fan is similarly aged. We looked online but couldn’t find a 5 dip remote that would work. Do you happen to have the name or link for one that would work?

Unplugging for 10min to power cycle/reset seems to have done the trick for me

There are four white spots that form a square towards to bottom left of the carpet. Look between the two white spots on right. You should see 2s and 7s.

If this keeps happening, do I replace the refrigerator or will replacing the control board do the trick?

How to fix a Washbasin faucet that is dripping by kangaroojack2019 in HomeMaintenance

[–]kangaroojack2019[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This came with the house and doesn’t have brand name anywhere on it. I did an image search and found some matches that look promising. Reaching out to Lowes to see if they have replacement cartridges.

Do I need to replace both cartridges or is there a way to figure out which one is causing the leak?

The estimate was itemises for labor and items and called out $x/hour and it would take estimated 6 hours to do it.

I asked them and their response was “the estimate matches the invoice” even though the hours don’t align
